Behavioral Health Intervention Services

Summary

The bill would launch a demonstration program under Florida's Medicaid plan to give combined counseling, nutrition therapy, health‑tracking devices, education and food supports to Medicaid recipients who have both depression (or anxiety) and diabetes, obesity or heart disease. It targets 1,000 participants in Indian River, Martin, Okeechobee, Palm Beach and St. Lucie counties and requires data collection and a post‑pilot report. The goal is to test whether these integrated services improve health outcomes and reduce costs.
